FREEMAN O. GARY, OF HAMILTON, WASHINGTON, ASSIGNOR OF ONE-HALF TO GEORGE SAVAGE, OF BIRDSVIEW, WASHINGTON.

SHELTER-SHED.

Specification of Letters Patent.

Application filed June 19, 1906.

Patented March 24, 1908.

Serial No. 322,437.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, FREEMAN O. CARY, a citizen of the United States, residing at Hamilton, in the county of Skagit and State of Washington, have invented a newl and useful Improvement in a Shelter Shed,of which the following is a specification.

This invention relates to sawyers shelter sheds, and more particularly to portable sheds, the object being to provide a shed which can be readily carried from place to place so that it can be set up over the workman as he moves from one log to another, so as to protect him from rain and snow.

Another object of my invention is to provide an adjustable shed so that it can be readily adjusted to suit the size of the workman, and one which can be turned as desired.

With these objects in view, the invention consists in the novel features of construction, hereinafter fully described, and pointed out in the claims.

In the drawings forming a part of this speciiicationz-Figure l is a perspective view of my improved shed. Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the inside of the shed. Fig. 3 is a detail perspective view of the cross bar and T-shaped tube. Fig. 4 is a detail sectional view of the T-shaped tube, showing the locking lever. Fig. 5 is a section taken on lines 5--5 of Fig. 4. Fig. 6 is a detail side view of the coat hook showing it attached. Fig. 7 is a section taken on lines 7 7 of Fig. 6. Fig. 8 is a vertical sectional view of the shed` Fig. 9 is a detail top plan view partly in section. Fig. 10 is a detail perspective view of the cross-bar. Fig. 11 is a pers ective view of the `I' -shaped tube partly bro ren away.

In the drawings A, indicates a tube provided with a solid pointed end adapted to be driven into the ground so as to form a standard on the upper end of which is slidably mounted a T-shaped tube B, provided with a vertical slot at its lower end having apertured ears extending out from each side of the slot between which a cam lever O, is mounted adapted to engage the tube A, and securely lock the tube B, thereon, in any position desired.

Arranged in the horizontal member of the T-shaped tube B, is a half round tube D, provided with a central round portion D', adapted to be secured in the horizontal memy ber of the T-shaped tube, wedge-shaped pins E passing through openings D2, formed to each side of the portion D'. Openings D3, are formed in the half round tube D, to which the angled ends of the bars F, are secured, by rivets passing through said openings. The bars li, are connected together at their lower ends bya bar F', and at their center by bars F2, forming a frame which is adapted to be covered by canvas Gr,l or any suitable material for shedding rain. A Sleeve I-I, is loosely mounted on the tube A, provided with an apertured ear I-I', to which the apertured ends of the rods I, are pivoted which are provided with forked ends I', in which the two central bars F, are adapted to be secured by pins. round tube D, to each side of the horizontal member of the T-shaped tube are bars J which are connected together at their ends by a bar J', forming a frame which is adapted to be covered by canvas K. A spring metal clip L, provided with a hook L', is adapted to be secured on the T-sha ed tube on which the workmans coat can e placed when desired.

From the foregoing description it will be readily seen that I have rovided a very novel shed which is very lig it and simple in construction and: one which can be set up in a very few minutes.

Having thus fully described my invention what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is l. A shed comprising a standard, a T- shaped tube adjustably mounted on the upper end of said standard, a half-round tube provided with a central rounded portion secured in the horizontal portion of the T- shaped head by pins, said tube being free to rotate, a canvas covered frame carried by said tube, rods pivotally mounted on said frame and a sleeve loosely mounted on the standard provided with aperturedears between which the ends of the rods are pivoted, said sleeve being held in an adjusted osition by frictional contact with said stan ard.

2. A shed of the kind described, comprising a standard, a T-shaped tube mounted on said standard provided with a cam lever adapted to engage the standard, a halfround tube provided with a central round portion mounted in the horizontal portion of the T-shaped tube, a canvas covered rectangular frame secured to said half-round tube,

Secured to the half" a sleeve mounted on the standard provided ywith rods connected to the frame and a c anvas covered frame extending out from said half-round tube to the other side, for the purpose set forth.

3.4 A shed of the kind described, comprising a pointed tube adapted to be driven into the ground, a T-shaped tube mounted on the upper end of said tube, a cam lever carried by said T-sha ed tube adapted to engage said tube, a bag-round tube provided with a central round portion adapted to be secured in the horizontal portion of. the T-shaped tube by Wedge-shaped pins passing through openings, formed to each side of the central round portion, a canvas covered rectangular frame secured to said half round tube provided With bars connected to a sleeve mounted on said tube and a canvas covered frame secured to the half round tube extending out to the other side, for the purpose set forth.
